Making a booking
- Prior to enrolling in a TSS Learn to Swim Program, all children must attend a free assessment. The assessment, that can be arranged at the pool, will take around 10 minutes and determines the swimming ability of the child. We can then allocate them into the appropriate class.
Enrolment
- Enrolments can be made directly after the child’s assessment. The child will automatically be put into a class. For those enrolling after the beginning of the term, positions are subject to availability. If enrolling at the end of term, the student will be placed in a class after re-enrolments of current students is complete.
Payment
- New enrolments: full payment for the Term is required prior to the commencement of the first lesson.
- Fees are payable upon re-enrolling. In the case of a long break, ie. Christmas vacations, a non-refundable or transferable deposit is required. Payments are to be made by cheque or cash only. Cheques made payable to: Tivoli Swim School.
- Refunds are not given. In the case of extenuating circumstances, a credit, or make up classes, may be issued, at the discretion of the Head Coach.
